Amazing! Hope mine will turn out half as good. Did you lay the silver for pinstripe first?

I almost bought a Dually that was that exact paint scheme before I found my '91!

That is almost my paint scheme, but the '91 is black on top and a metallic blue on the bottom.  stripe is flames.  Yours looks killer!

You weld the bolts on the backside of the bumper. Grind down the head and fill it in.

Smoother bumper with bolts attached.

Yes, I cut the top of the bolt off but left the square portion that goes into the bumper and welded both sides. After being ground the bumper is completely smooth and has the bolts on the inside. I also welded up all the air dam holes across the bottom.
